In a move that crosses the line from political rivalry to outright disgrace, JD Vance, Donald Trump’s potential vice president, has accused Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’s choice for Vice President, of “stolen valor.” This baseless and inflammatory charge not only disrespects the shared code of honor among veterans but also dangerously trivializes the very concept of stolen valor. What Vance has done is more than just ugly — it’s a deliberate attempt to undermine the dignity of military service and exploit it for political gain.
